Why can Mozambique Tilapia Acclimate to Both Freshwater and Seawater? Insights From the Plasticity of Ionocyte Functions in the Euryhaline Teleost
In teleost fishes, ionocytes in the gills are important osmoregulatory sites in maintaining ionic balance. During the embryonic stages before the formation of the gills, ionocytes are located in the yolk-sac membrane and body skin. In Mozambique tilapia embryos, quintuple-color immunofluorescence st...
